The Chinese New Year's Eve and his sweetheart kept the New Year together, and had a warm New Year, but when Du Shiyi started early in the morning and quietly returned to Chengdu County, not only did he have to go to the Yizhou Metropolitan Governor's Mansion and the Yizhou Assassin Shi Guan's Mansion to pay a visit to the two top bosses, but also had to face those guests who came to give gifts or come to pay a visit, and even a sleep was a luxury. What annoyed him even more was that he thought that it would be enough to meet Fan Chengming and the Yizhou King Thorn Shi in a polite manner, but who knew that Fan Chengming actually invited him to go to the Sanhua Tower

Although he was tired and wanted to yawn, Fan Chengming, the governor of Yi Prefecture, was the de facto supreme governor of the entire Jiannan Province. Just like the previous Zhang Jiazhen served as the governor of Yizhou, xìng Zi was reserved, and he did not pretend to the rest of the thorn history, only Li Mian, the assassin of Hanzhou, was able to talk about political affairs with him, Fan Chengming was certainly more amiable than Zhang Jiazhen, but he was also polite but alienated, at the end of the year, many thorn histories gathered in Yizhou, and met with Shangguan to report on government affairs, few people could be left by him to drink more tea, let alone invite him to travel together. So, he couldn't refuse, so he could only agree.

There was only a snowfall last night, but the wind was not too strong on the first day of the first lunar month. Even so, when it was opened, the literati and scholars continued to scatter flowers, but in this Zhengdan rì, it seemed a little deserted. This is not because Shi Fan Chengming, the governor of Rì Yi, climbed the building on a whim, so the soldiers controlled the surroundings of the Sanhua Building, but because the reunion of the Chūn Festival is a folk custom, and the foreigners who live in Chengdu can go back long ago, and those who do not go back, on the first day of the new year, most of them invite friends to drink and eat for themselves, and the locals also have relatives and friends to worship. Therefore, on the huge scattered flower building, except for those patrolling soldiers, there is no one else to be seen.

"This scattered flower upstairs is facing the glow of the sun, hanging red at dusk, not to Chengdu, I don't know the beauty of Shu, does Du Jiulang think so?"

Du Shiyi, who was one step behind Fan Chengming, heard such an emotion, so he said with a smile: "Bashu paradise is naturally beautiful everywhere. ”

Fan Chengming glanced back at Du Shiyi, and saw that more of the entourage were standing not far away, he thought for a moment, and then decided not to beat around the bush and start directly from the interests.

"Before I was appointed to Yizhou as governor, I had a letter from Zhang Xiangguo. Zhang Xiangguo praised you in the letter for your elegance and words, courage and unparalleled, in the past few months, I have watched you deal with affairs and govern, all of them have rules, and what is even more rare is to follow the old rules, so that the people all feel simple. Don't underestimate the word "precedent", it can be used for many years, and there is a certain reason for it. If you change it rashly, it will inevitably hurt your muscles and bones. ”

This is based on the old rules, implying that Yu Wenrong's Kutian Kuhu has changed the ancestral law that has always been established. Under Fan Chengming's scrutinizing gaze, Du Shiyi lowered her eyelids and said respectfully: "What Fan Yuanjun said is a good word of gold and jade, and the lower officials should remember it." ”

Such an answer to Baba is naturally not the result that Fan Chengming wanted to invite Du Shiyi to climb the Sanhua Building on a cold day. He frowned imperceptibly, and said in an accentuated tone: "Whether it is Chengdu, Yizhou, or even many states and counties in Jiannan Province, all of them are paid by the resident residents. In recent years, although it seems that nearly 10,000 fugitive households have been expanded, and there are thousands of acres of foreign fields, it is actually not conducive to the dynasty at all. The customers are exempt from taxes, the residents are dissatisfied, and the land tax for all the naturalization of the fields has hurt the enthusiasm of the people for reclamation Although Du Jiulang has been a foreign official for only a few months, he should also see the people's livelihood and people's feelings very clearly."

Fan Chengming and Zhang said that his brother-in-law yīn Xingzhen was an in-law, and he and Zhang Shuo had a great friendship, and in the face of Du Shiyi, who was much younger than him in all official positions, he knew that the other party was a smart person who could not be underestimated, so he opened the skylight and said bright words. Under the direct gaze, he saw Du Shiyi bow deeply after being silent for a while.

"Yuwen Zhongcheng's Kutian Kuhu is a good government praised by the sage. Although it was implemented suddenly, there may have been mistakes and omissions, but there were many fugitives in various places, so that in the narrow township, only half of the people in the previous number were left, but they had to bear the same amount of service as before. ”

Although Du Shiyi does not really wholeheartedly support Yu Wenrong's Kutian Kuhu, and feels that this is a symptom rather than a cure, however, it is good to say that Yu Wenrong is making political capital, at least this son of heaven is doing practical things. Moreover, there is a basis for re-registering these hidden households and fugitives to implement other policies and strategies in the future.

Because of this, he, who was going to be false and wronged, couldn't help it for a while, so he asked this sharp question. Seeing that Fan Chengming really frowned this time, he said lightly: "The imperial court wants to pay officials money, settle borders, and have armaments, and all kinds of money is indispensable, and these are all from taxes. Therefore, even if there are more and fewer households in narrow villages, but if the people are compassionate because of the disaster, can they still be reinstated because there are too many fugitive households? I know that it seems unfair that the current government decree is exempting customers from paying taxes while residents are exempt from taxes, so I am also thinking about how to solve it. If there is anything else to gain, he will be the first to report to the fan to make you know. ”

Fan Chengming didn't expect that after only staying on the Sanhua Tower for a short while, Du Shiyi had already given his attitude. The corners of his mouth sneered, and he felt a sense of inadequacy and scheming in his heart, and he didn't bother to continue wasting time in this cold wind. But just as he was about to end this unpleasant trip to Sanhualou, he suddenly heard a shouting from below, and soon the noise became louder and louder. He raised his eyebrows unhappily, and planned to send the servant to see the clues, but after Du Shiyi frowned thoughtfully, he suddenly rushed to the side of the city wall facing Chengdu City, and looked down with the battlement.

With his keen ears, he had just heard a scream, so he was walking so fast. At this moment, he looked down, and his pupils immediately contracted suddenly. But I saw that on the row of stone piers at the gate of the city, a woman was lying on the ground with her head bleeding and her face bleeding, but there were many pedestrians and merchants who entered and left the city around to watch, and those soldiers who rushed over because of this sudden scene were running back and forth loudly. At this time, he didn't care that Fan Chengming was also present, so he turned around and walked downstairs quickly without saying a word.

When he came to the bleeding woman, he reached out to probe the nose first, and then tried the carotid artery, and found that although the pulse was weak, it was not all gone, and he knew in his heart that cardiopulmonary resuscitation was not needed, because the human brain was violently concussed, so he finally closed his breath and lost consciousness. Thinking that it was important to save people, he took out the handkerchief in his arms, gently wiped the blood on his head and face, and when he found that the wound was about the size of a copper coin, the blood flow was not obvious at this moment, and the remaining head injury was not what he was good at, so he dismissed the plan to continue emergency treatment. It may not be difficult for acupuncture to wake people up, but then he doesn't know much about it.

And at this moment, a rough voice came from behind him: "Hey, who let you approach the wounded?" Not afraid of getting into a lawsuit...... Ah, Team Yang is positive."

When Du Shiyi turned his head, he only saw the scene of the soldier being quickly dragged away by Yang Zhao. Chibi, on the other hand, had already squeezed out of the crowd. As early as when he heard the commotion below, he had already quickly gone downstairs to find out, and when he squeezed out of the crowd, he happened to see Du Shiyi next to the injured, and hurriedly stepped forward, but said in a low voice: "Someone in the crowd saw that this woman hit her head on the stone pillar, and now I don't know."

Faced with this tragic scene, Du Shiyi frowned, and immediately said without thinking: "No matter what, save people first"

"I know Lang Jun must say that." Chibi has been following Du Shiyi for not a day or two, and he knows his habits very well, "This woman's injury is difficult to know, don't move much, I have already asked Hu Xiao, who went downstairs with me, to ask for a doctor." It's just that Fan Yuanjun is upstairs, but he has to immediately drive away the idle people around him, so as not to be too noisy? ”

Du Shiyi glanced at the growing crowd of onlookers, and saw that the guards at the city gate were under the maintenance of Yang Zhao, preventing these people from approaching the woman on the ground, and sending people to guard in all directions, he nodded secretly, and then ordered in a deep voice: "First, you go and order them to pull up the rope, surround all the surroundings, and do not allow people to step into the jǐng cordon for half a step; Second, these people who see the excitement immediately screen and find out the witnesses, or those who know the woman, and immediately leave testimony, this matter needs to be done carefully, and you do it yourself; Third ......"

Du Shiyi, who paused, looked up at the Scattered Flower Building, one of the symbols of Chengdu City, and saw that Fan Chengming did not come down from above, so he said softly: "That's it, you go first"

It is not uncommon to pull the rope to maintain such a jǐng ring technique, but most of them are used when Shangguan or nobles are coming, and at this moment, for an inexplicable incident of touching the pillar, the people around are all whispering. Especially the young man who had just crossed the crowd to check on the wounded, although he was standing aside at this time, from time to time someone went up to report it, which was very respectful, and some people secretly guessed his identity. However, the momentum of their gossip only lasted long, and in a short period of time, the people of Chengdu County Party had begun to check whether they knew this woman one by one, or saw the scene when she fell to the ground.

Most people have the psychology of joining in the fun, but most people are not sensitive when they get into trouble. But Chibi just came down quickly, but all those who were present at the beginning were in his eyes, and he had to pick out the people one by one. He was accustomed to seeing big battles, and a few words were both soft and hard, and a few witnesses made up for the woman's touching of the pillar.

Anyone who saw a man come out of the city in disheveled clothes and was mad and said something that no one could understand, or suddenly slammed into the stone pillar with all his might, and no one else could stop him...... All in all, the situation is clearly described, but they don't know what it is.

In addition to these people, a somewhat thin man hesitated for a long time, and finally sighed and said: "I know this woman, this Liu Zhang is from Xicheng, Chengdu, it is said that a few years ago, her father and brother were originally going to sell her to a merchant in her fifties as a concubine, but she happened to meet her customer Liu Liang, so she eloped with him to get married, and his father and brother came to the door in anger, but Liu Liang beat her away, and finally broke off the relationship. This woman is a diligent and able to hold it, who knows that Liu Liang gambled indiscriminately, and after abducting her and eloping, he was exposed, and he didn't talk about it for three days, and he scolded the woman, and it is said that a few days ago, he punched and kicked the fetus in the woman's womb. Presumably for this, she couldn't return to her mother's house, so she was ashamed and planned to die here. ”
